Have you imagined your world collapsed ? What's it like to see the things you put together with utmost care suddenly fall down ?

We'll all have dreams, we all wanna run away from here to a different virtual painless world. But where do you go when even the virtual one fades out!
This video just shows things like these. Seeing the things you built destroying themselves. And the melancholy of the music is wonderful.

Well, I'm at work ! Serious Work! Not really of project always :P , but something extra.
I just can't concentrate with all that noise around me. There is some music which takes me to a different world. And guess what, I guess I've found some of it.

Many times I've searched for good background music for Programming and in all results "Time" by Hans Zimmer was at the top. It's truly a masterpiece.

So, here are the one's that I've for you , plug them in and enjoy your world! Away from this cruel "real" world. We , programmers generally live in a "Virtual" world so why not be there fully! ( Don't recall "The Matrix" ). The list is :

Ahhh! Now, I just have to write about it. I must write what I know and what I will do if I have to choose a Smart Phone. This might be helpful for people who just want a smart phone because everyone has it, but don't know which one! In-spite of going blindly and following suggestion of your friends/relatives, you can also look for below things.
I agree "Ignorance Is Bliss" and it's easy many times to not know the reality. But, when you know it , that hurts!
Enough philosophy, let's get on track.

This post is regarding why I choose Xperia V as compared to
other available in market in mid-range.

Assumptions

·I love Sony; they always have something
different to offer. Best User Experience.

·I hate Samsung due to previous experiences (though
not with smartphones). Galaxy DUOS S, I recommend to all.

Well, I had a lot of choices with the likes of HTC Desire
series, Nexus4, IPhone 4 etc. I don’t like Lumia also. So, I had to choose an
Android under 20K. (it’s more than enough to get a good phone, people spending
35-40K for a phone are ahhhh ***, get a bike instead J )

And I chose Sony Xperia V. Let’s see why.

Xperia V - Notice ARC design

First & foremost, I wanted to see things myself and don’t
fall in marketing tricks. Many people buy a phone since all are buying it. I
buy a thing according to what I think and what I need.

Secondly, I did take user opinions of real users (friends, cousins,
colleagues etc.). It took me almost a year to decide!

XPERIA V – The Real small cousin of Xperia Z

Though it’s old in age than Xperia Z, I’ll still call it as its
small cousin due to lower configuration & budget also (wait: don’t
underestimate it).

In India, marketing people are telling us that Xperia SP is
family member of Xperia Z. They want to ride-on the success of Xperia Z and raise
their sales in mid-range phones. Well, I say they are sales people. They’ll
never tell you the truth.

What’s the so-wow feature of Xperia Z? Waterproof I guess.

Is SP water-proof? No

And what about Xperia V? Of Course, it is. With it comes
wet-finger tracking, rain-proof device.

This is my guide on helping you make the best choice while travelling from Mumbai airport to Pune.
There are many options available through bus,train,taxi & even air (aprrox. INR 2000).
I had to come from Mumbai Domestic airport to Magarpatta and I weighed down all options.
Here's my analysis :

Mode

Details

Comfort

Availability

Price

Dropping Points

Train

From airport catch a prepaid taxi to Dadar railway station. There
catch any train to Pune. There are many available, book tickets in advance.

Depends on your coach J

Frequent

150 taxi + 300 3AC

Pune Railway Station

Government Bus

Goto Dadar and catch Shivneri (Official luxury bus service of MSTDC)

Good

After Each half hour from 5am till 11 pm

150 taxi + 350 + (auto/cab to your location)

Swargate (not sure)

Private Bus (Neeta & others)

Available from outside of airport under the bridge.

From “Arrivals” at airport, get a quick auto and ask him to drop him
under the highway for a bus to Pune. Behave as you are a regular traveller.
Don’t pay more than INR 30 no matter what. Walk if needed and ask anyone on
the way.

He has won Australian Open for 4 times now and he's the only player in the open era to do a hat trick of winning it 3 times in a row. Total grand slam count stands at 6 now. He's due to win many more.

He had great chances last year also like in 2011. But, just fell at the last moments. Hopefully, he'll complete his Career Slam by winning Rolland Garros this year. Last year, he played his first final there & was very close to winning it.

Now, if Federer is to Wimbeldon and Nadal is to French Open ....
Then certainly Novak is to Australian Open .

Should we consider change "Australian Open" caption to "The Grand Slam of Novak Djokovic" ?
Not his fan? Just enjoy his tennis and watch hid inspirational interviews. You will follow him. :)
